Job Description:

Working with a household name in FMCG in the role of Senior National Account Manager (SNAM), you’ll get the kind of experience that will open doors for the rest of your career.

Surrounded by people who are at the top of their game, picking up insights and coaching that will sharpen your commercial instincts and strategic thinking. You’ll take on projects that stretch you and help you build a reputation as someone who gets things done.
